Lap-Shoulder Belt
The
driver has
a
lap-shoulder belt.
Here’s
how
to
wear
it
properly.
1.
Close
and
lock
the
door.
2.
Adjust
the
seat
(to
see
how,
see
“Seats”
in
the Index)
so
you
can sit up straight.
3.
Pick-up
the
latch
plate and pull the belt across you.
Don’t
let it get twisted.
On
convertible
models,
the shoulder belt may lock
if
you
pull
the
belt
across
you very quickly. If this
happens,
let
the
belt
go
back
slightly
to
unlock
it.
Then
pull
the
belt across
you
more
slowly.
4.
Push
the
latch plate into the buckle until it clicks.
